Tasting notes:

A blend of Nerello Mascalese sourced from the various altitudes and soil types of their Contrada or Cru. Aged in large, neutral oak barrels and unfiltered. Aromas of bright and pure red berry fruit with notes of minerals and herbaceous hints. With time it will show exotic aromas of camphor, sandalwood, and spice. Medium-bodied and fresh on the palate with creamy and polished tannins and a savoury finish.

Producer description:

Passopisciaro is considered one of Sicily’s top estates. In the year 2000, after being tipped by a friend, pioneer winemaker Andrea Franchetti visited the northern slope of Mount Etna to explore some neglected ancient vineyards. He saw great potential in the elevated terraces sitting on lava soils planted with Nerello Mascalese. Andrea focussed on making single-vineyard wines and aimed to pave the way towards a cru system in the area. Today, his son Benjamin continues his vision. All wines are biodynamic.
